At the workshop, staff will provide an overview of CARB’s process for preparing the Environmental Impact Analysis (EIA) and its content required under the California Environmental Quality Act. Staff welcome public input at the workshop on the appropriate scope and content of the EIA at the beginning of our process. A draft of the EIA will be released for public review and comment when the staff report is released.
Staff will discuss and seek input on potential updates to:
- Criteria air pollutant (e.g., ozone and particulate matter), greenhouse gas, and toxic emissions standards
- Certification
- Zero-emission vehicle requirements
- Environmental analysis
- Next steps and rulemaking timeline
CARB staff also welcome additional ideas or perspectives and suggestions to help strengthen the program.
